>MC is a total fucking retard

Name 5 series that do this.

>everyone is a total fucking retard

MC lands on near breasts/crotch of female Lead

>Character does something
>"AAH! CHARACTER-SAN DID SOMETHING!"
I hate flavor narration.

>Antagonist giving a 10 minute explanation of his powers before attempting to kill a charcter.

>girl is so fucking dumb she can barely talk / makes animal sounds and moves as if she's an animal, repeatedly

I don't care what kind of shit they want to do with it, I will drop the anime the moment I see shit like this on screen

?

>MC is a total faggot about sleeping with girls even though tries to convince us he's straight

>MC gains some dumbass hidden power to help him win an unwinnable fight.

>MC is the chosen one
I dislike this one the most, it's so fucking bullshit. Why can't he just be a random jackass who happens to be good at what he does?

>big fight between enemies is literally just punching shit until someone dies

why can't more animes be like jojo where interesting shit happens.

>apathetic reserved "cool" girl with a breathy whisper for a voice.

YOU ARE AN EMPTY VESSEL FOR A TROPE
NOONE IS LIKE THAT UNLESS THEY ARE DEPRESSED OR ON BARBITURATES

>tropes threads

Maybe you could stop watching shit anime?

>*gulp gulp gulp* PUWAAAAAAAAA

OISHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Similarly

Oh that's a great idea user, why have I never thought of that before?

>antagonist is extremely powerful, far beyond MC's power
>leaves a blatant plot thread or clue that will make him lose in the end before the fight even starts

>why can't more animes be like jojo where interesting shit happens.
I love jojo as much as the next guy but part 3 was nothing but punching until the guy dies.

people actually do things like this though.

whether they were dying of thirst or they just had a stressful day

all can be boil down to arrogance

...

School festivals.

in that one manga where the girl is going to confess to the guy as the firework goes off but because light is faster than sound he hears the confession and they start going out

What manga? Sounds interesting

...

>the deadly japanese truck.
>also the frequency of new shit popping up thats about being sent to another world with RPG elements.
>something happens to MC/MC does something but its out of his control yet MC is blamed and punished for whatever happens
the last one infuriates me the most

>MC is considered weakest but is actually the strongest and is only considered weak by some arbitrary standard
>MC is unironically too perfect and everyone tries to succ dic

Not really, punching things was just a finisher, the fights were mostly about finding a good way to punch, punching the right things, finding enemy to punch etc. even fight with DIO which was most shonen-ish of them all was about prolonging it until Araki comes up with an asspull to counter time stopping.

>I'm such an otaku look at how much of an otaku faggot I am

So all of conedy anime

>characters only has seconds before urgent thing happens
>exposition for 5 minutes

>mentioning Nietzsche, Schrödinger's cat, Marie Antoinette

>MC likes worst girl

It's actually like that in real life user

>violent bullies that are somehow immune to consequences
I get that japan has a bullying problem but authors take it way past plausibility

Literally every shoujo desu. There's also
>characters about to kiss
>someone interrupts them accidentally
>DENIED, relationship reset, have fun waiting 10 chapters to get back to the same point
I'm glad I stopped reading shoujo, every arc is stupid bullshit misunderstandings or melodrama, they never have any real problems

>Confession at the airport, super cliché romance trope
>It's the girl chasing the guy
>She confesses as a plane flies by
>She's super flustered and yells out a much more awkward confession
>They both start freaking out because it's so awkward

The best.

>such are mentioned
>aren't used to babby-tier their way into supporting so character's view
>almost offhandedly instead
>simply informative, interesting or even educational in purpose
>mfw

>Yuri anime adaption has an open ending

THE FUCKING MANGA HAD THE OVARIES TO HAVE THEM HOOK UP

Doesn't make it any less annoying.

>narration

I agree, but art imitates real life

>characters about to kiss
>someone interrupts them accidentally
>DENIED, relationship reset, have fun waiting 10 chapters to get back to the same point
This has happened to me twice. I'm still a kissless virgin.

Nerawareta Gakuen did it 5 times in a row

What's her name?

How...how is that even possible?

Outbreak company did it right. The rest can fuck off, especially when it's
>MC is an otaku just like you who uses his game knowledge to get ahead in the world that has RPG rules

>shit hits the fan
>oh look! the stuff we just needed to not die just lying around
>and I just happen to be an expert in how to use them!

Fucking really? How lazy.

>shy girl's stomach growls

I cringe everytime

Watching Flip Flappers?

Girl confessed again ang again while fireworks burst

Fuck you!
Thunderbolt Fantasy was good.

>look, I'm doing something silly to a comedic effect!
>sticks hand out with a big tear shape on head
>YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING SILLY WHICH ISN'T NORMAL SO I HAVE TO POINT IT OUT!

There are only two forms of Japanese humor.
>Puns
>What you just mentioned

>"yaaaa gomen gomen"

>guy makes pun
>other guy goes along normally
>finishes thought
>sticks hand out with a big tear shape on head
>YOU JUST MADE A PUN USING A WORD WHICH DOES NOT MAKE CONTEXTUAL SENSE TO THE CURRENT SITUATION SO I HAVE TO POINT IT OUT!

>talking for 5 minutes while flying towards their opponent

I can't really fault an anime if it was adapted from a manga where that shit works, but still. Is there a better way to do this without triggering purists of the source material?

Watch WWWorking and eat those words.

The reason for that is because of the way that Japanese sentences are structured. If they tried to tell a western joke, then the punchline would come before the set-up. It just doesn't work.

So what you're saying is Japanese is a shit language?

>how many layers of japanese humor are you on

Konosuba last year had some pretty good situational comedy. Though there was a bit of that pointing out unusual shit humor.

________Yes_______

Wait TLR did that?

Angry EOPs detected.

Japanese sucks in a lot of situations, but not because of sentence structure.

>Japanese sucks in a lot of situations

While you're here could you tell us some?

>anime is not faithful to the manga
>such as giving one characters lines/moments to another character purely out of the director/animator bias
>animeonlyfags think it's canon

>shoehorned references to chess because this is an Anime for INTELLECTUALS

Kek.

What hasn't TLR done? It's a long-running romcom/harem.

>Female characters are useless in universe and exist only so that MC has a love interest and fans can make porn of them.
>Even the "strong" ones job to anything they fight.
>Truly competent females are honorary men with tits or savage women who will break and become useless baggage by falling in love with MC.

There is nothing hotter than a woman who can take care of herself, win fights, and still has some traditional feminine charm. Why are they so rare? I don't want strong independent wymyn who don't need no man or sluts. Just cute girls who are as tough as the boys without trying to be like them.

I just want to let you know i exaggerate and do it more on purpose
The next on is gonna be extra loud

All of the words sound the same. Try having a conversation in a lab where you use scientific words. English has long distinct words for everything, Japanese has short words that sound the same as everything else, or broken Engrish words that are so far off of what they are in English that I have hear them 3 times before I realize shit like kinaaze is kinase or pepuchido is peptide.

...

RIKEN?

You know it.

Todai.

>The shipper who is best friend wants to be shipped.

I'm afraid I don't understand your implication.

>series starts off super dark with murder and/or rapes implied
>TIME FOR WACKY ADVENTURES

Truly the worst

> MC has no character other than the fact that he's nice, an otaku or a NEET or maybe all 3.


Can you just please take 5 minutes and have someone more interesting as your central fucking character?

He or she can be relatable sure, go ahead and make them an weeb so you can shove in references. Or make him or her shut-in, that's fair game. JUST DO'NT FUCKING MAKE IT THEIR ENTIRE FUCKING PERSONALITY

But being a loser is all the audience for LNshit can relate to.

>better cover yourself/dry off otherwise you will get sick

only in japan could such a ridiculous superstition persist

>MC has a mom, sister or daughter
>doesn't impregnate them

Just because I'm a loser does'nt mean I want to read about losers.

>guys hitting on a girl when she's alone/waiting for someone and then getting angry when she says no
Like what the fuck man, why would they think it's a good idea?

Having a character the audience can relate to is fine and well, but so many of these MCs are just shit, as are their stories.

Watch more anime.

Let me guess, Akuma no Riddle?

I just watched that for this cutie pie, 10/10 would waifu if she wasn't lesbian.

You forgot "girl is deaf so she can't even pronounce the fucking confession properly"

You forgot "a major plot point that ties into the theme of communication is dropped and idiots think it's ok because not everything needs romance even if it was an integral part of the story."

>Just cute girls who are as tough as the boys without trying to be like them.
A culture doesn't exist yet which knows how to make something like that. The west is all the way on the strong wymn extreme, and Japan is on the other end, where their "ideal" woman is someone who doesn't speak at all and staysin the kitchen. Which is funny as a joke but boring as fuck in real life, there's a reason women cheat and men kill themselves.

BEACH
EPISODE
WITH WATERMELONS

That's a very shitty archetype found in modern literature too. It's basically the Haruki Murakami 'here, relate to this boring faggot' MC.
>no real personality of his own
>unimportant occupation
>very bland character except when faced with extremes so he's basically displayed as a nice fellow
>actions and opinions dictated by common sense
>optional: some generic hobby or preference (2D-kuns, swimming, biking, stamp collecting, jazz enthusiast)
This type of MC is the enabler and it's probably the easiest guy you can write. When you encounter such characters you just know the author will devote too much effort to the secondary cast, which will usually consist of whacky or colorful people somehow attracted to a bland passive guy.

I'm still mad too, friend. Mad as hell.

I fucking hate those.

>I don't have a swimsuit
>Me either
>Let's have a swimsuit episode of trying them on

Watch Gunbuster and Mononoke Hime.

Saw it in theaters, I was still fanny flustered.
